We're Starting Up a Brand New Day

Today, I will marry the man I love more than life...for the second time. Having looked at life without him I have found the one reason that makes all of the pain, all the tears shed and all of the voices that cry "don't" seem diminished. I am following my heart and choosing to live a life full of all the love I can stand. It's a leap of faith and those I have taken in the past have made me stronger and more whole. I don't want to spend my life in a bubble.

I want more than just a dream to tell.

Your thoughts, prayers, friendship, happiness and love are welcome to join us in this...

Brand New Day

How many of you people out thereBeen hurt in some kind of love affair?And how many times did you swear That you'd never love again?How many lonely, sleepless nights?How many lies, how many fights?And why would you want to Put yourself through all of that again?

"Love is pain," I hear you say Love has a cruel and bitter way ofPaying you back for all the faith you ever had in your brainHow could it be that what you need the most Can leave you feeling just like a ghost?You never want to feel so sad and lost again

One day you could be looking Through an old book in rainy weather You see a picture of her smiling at youWhen you were still together Or you could be walking down the street And who should you chance to meet But that same old smile you've been thinking of all day?

Why don't we turn the clock to zero, honeyI'll sell the stock, we'll spend all the money We're starting up a brand new day Turn the clock all the way backI wonder if she'll take me back I'm thinking in a brand new way

Turn the clock to zero, sisterYou'll never know how much I missed her I'm starting up a brand new day Turn the clock to zero, bossThe river's wide, we'll swim across We're starting up a brand new day

It could happen to you,Just like it happened to me,There's simply no immunity There's no guarantee.I say love's such a force if you find yourself in it You need some time for reflectionYou say, baby wait a minute, wait a minute Wait a minute, wait a minute Wait a minute, wait a minute

Turn the clock to zero, honey I'll sell the stock, we'll spend all the money We're starting up a brand new day Turn the clock to zero, Mac I'm begging her to take me back I'm thinking in a brand new way

Turn the clock to zero, bossThe river's wide, we'll swim across We're starting up a brand new day Turn the clock to zero buddy Don't wanna be no fuddy duddy Started up a brand new day

I'm the rhythm in your tune I'm the sun and you're the moon I'm the bat and you're the cave You're the beach and I'm the wave I'm the plow and you're the landYou're the glove and I'm the handI'm the train and you're the station I'm a flagpole to your nation - yeah

Stand up all you lovers in the world Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl Stand up all you lovers in the world Starting up a brand new day

I'm the present to your futureYou're the wound and I'm the sutureYou're the magnet to my poleI'm the devil in your soulYou're the pupil I'm the teacherYou're the church and I'm the preacherYou're the flower I'm the rainYou're the tunnel I'm the train
